Ultrafast X-ray spectroscopies enable the investigation of fast chemical dynamics with time resolutions reaching the order of attoseconds. Processes such as spin crossover, structural deformations in excited states and dissociation reactions can now be studied through the use of short X-ray pulses produced by high-harmonic, free-electron-laser and synchrotron sources.
